Miller criticizes Iverson; out Thursday

Source (fanball.com) (SG - det) | 0 comments.

The Detroit News reports that Reggie Miller was critical of Allen Iverson, who will not play in Thursday's game, in Tuesday's TNT broadcast. "I've played a lot of games against Allen Iverson when he was with the Philadelphia 76ers, and he is one of the toughest guys I've ever gone against," Miller said. "But having said that and knowing the information we know, what Arnie Kander is saying, it's almost like (Iverson) is holding this team hostage because he cannot accept the responsibility of coming off the bench. That's sad because he is one of the truly great little men we've ever had in the game."

Our View: He's not alone. There has been plenty of speculation regarding the severity of AI's injury. He has returned to practice, but there has been no timetable set as to when he will return. Iverson has publicly responded to the criticism and seems sincere about the pain and numbness in his back, but nobody really knows but him.

Iverson is expected to be re-evaluated by doctors at Georgetown University on Wednesday, two weeks after they suggested he take two weeks off to rest his sore back. Team officials have said Iverson has been receiving treatments, although he has made an effort to do so without drawing much attention. "Every day I come in here, we ask about Allen," coach Michael Curry said. "He knows that. He's almost in a no-win situation. He doesn't want to be the story. He doesn't want his injury or him coming off the bench to be a distraction or anything to the team. He just wants to win, get into the playoffs and compete for a title." [...]

Iverson returned to the team and was at practice Thursday after visiting doctors at Georgetown University in Washington. Coach Michael Curry said Iverson — who averages 18 points but has missed the past three games with the back injury — was targeting an early return. "He doesn't think that he's going to have to be out the entire two weeks," Curry said. "He wants to get out there as soon as possible. So, hopefully with the treatment and the rest, he'll feel better and we can get him out there as soon as possible. We need him out there. We need him healthy, out there healthy playing so we can be the team we envision ourselves being." [...]
